Agenda 1. Reorienting health services: state of the art 2. Complementing/completing health services: Creating partnerships & common ground 3. Contributions by salutogenesis Bauer-2016 2
Reorienting health services? Source: Ottawa Charta WHO 1986 The role of the health sector must move increasingly in a health promotion direction, beyond its responsibility for providing clinical and curative services. Health services need to embrace an expanded mandate which is sensitive and respects cultural needs. This mandate should support the needs of individuals and communities for a healthier life, and open channels between the health sector and broader social, political, economic and physical environmental components. Reorienting health services also requires stronger attention to health research as well as changes in professional education and training. This must lead to a change of attitude and organization of health services which refocuses on the total needs of the individual as a whole person. Bauer-2016 3
Reorienting health services: original recommendations from Ottawa Source: Report from the sub-plenary session of the first International Conference on Health Promotion, Ottawa November 1986 (published in Health Promotion 1/4 1986) Increase citizen partnership in planning & implementing health services Strengthen information of and collaboration with citizens Increase accountability contribution to individual, family, community health outcomes (targets/indicators) Foster research on origins of health Change financial incentives to support more HP activities Change initial and continuing education of health professionals Increase the advocacy role Bauer-2016 4
Reorienting health services: later recommendations Specific Ottawa recommendations repeated in later articles (Nutbeam 1991, Yeatman & Nove 2002, Wise & Nutbeam 2007) Study of barriers of Reorienting to more HP in health services asking health professionals (Johansson et al. 2010) Heavy workload Lack of guidelines Unclear objectives Significantly lower willingness of male vs. female health professionals Bauer-2016 5
Diffusion of Innovation (Rogers x); Source: Theory in a nutshell, Nutbeam et al. 2010 Characteristics of an innovation Compatibility with values Clarity of relative advantage Simplicity & flexibility Reversability & perceived risk Observability of results by others Bauer/2016 Page 6
Reorienting health services: argument of effectiveness & equity Show effectiveness of HP beneficial to invest (Nutbeam 2008) Act collectively on the deep rooted causes of poor and inequitable health (Baum et al. 2009) Leadership: Improving the equity performance of the health care system Stewardship: Working with other sectors to improve health and health equity Combine arguments of economic efficiency and contribution to health equity to justify investments in HP (Ziglio et al. 2011, EuroHealthNet 2012) Bauer-2016 7
Reorienting health services: approach of capacity building Build HP capacities in the health services workforce (Judd & Keleher 2012) Workforce development Organisational development Resource allocation Partnerships / alliances Bauer-2016 8
Agenda 1. Reorienting health services: state of the art 2. Complementing/completing health services: Creating partnerships & common ground Clearify type of relationship Partnership -> requires common & complementary ground 3. Contributions by salutogenesis Bauer-2016 9
Clarify Relationship between health services & health promotion Two opposing fields? - HP re-orienting > HS would we like to be re-oriented by HS services? can we re-orient HS? Two complementary but separate fields HS + HP? Equal Partnership in exchange HS <> HP In line with HP principles strength/resources/asset orientation In line with ideal of co-production of health in health care / mutual learning requires common & complementary ground with clear profile of each field Bauer-2016 10
Partnership/exchange: requires common ground Common evidence & value base: social determinants of health risk factors & resources E.g. Public Health = Health Services and Health Promotion goals in Austria equity at core Common approach: health promotion working principles (equitable, empowering, participatory, holistic,...) complementing medical guidelines Common & complementary ground: shared mental model of health development linking patho- & salutogenesis Bauer-2016 11
Common & compelementary ground: health development model (Bauer,Davies, Bauer-2016 Pelikan; Health Promotion International 2006) 12
Agenda 1. Reorienting health services: state of the art 2. Complementing/completing health services: Creating partnerships & common ground 3. Contributions by salutogenesis Bauer-2016 13
Contribution by salutogenesis: a matured field Sections 1. Overview and Origins of Salutogenesis 2. Salutogenesis: New Directions 3. The Salutogenic Construct of the SoC 4. The Application in Everyday Settings 5. The Application in Healthcare Settings 6. A Portal to the Non-English Literatures 7. Questions for the Future: Dialogue Bauer-2016 14
Contribution by salutogenesis: Selected chapters The meanings of salutogenesis (Mittelmark & Bauer) Application of salutogenesis to health care (Pelikan) Application to settings (Bauer) Bauer-2016 15
Salutogenic orientation Salutogenic model Sense of Coherence SoC The meanings of salutogenesis (Mittelmark & Bauer) Bauer-2016 16
Salutogenic orientation (Antonovsky 1996) dichotomous classification into healthy or not > a healthy/dis-ease continuum risk factors > salutary factors that actively promote health particular pathology, disability or characteristic of a person > relating to all aspects of a person or a community of persons Bauer-2016 17
Application of salutogenesis in health care: Salutogenic orientation (Pelikan 2016) 1. physical, mental, and social ill and healthy aspects of a person 2. possible salutary factors have to be enhanced as well in curative, preventive, protective and promotive practice. 3. take responsibility for the health of patients, staff and citizens in the catchment area policy change of the mandate, of the traditional diagnostic and therapeutic repertoire and of the clinical outlook Bauer-2016 18
Application of salutogenesis in health care: Salutogenic practice (Pelikan 2016) develop salutogenic standards and make institutional contexts more salutogenic using the SOC concept for making health care structure and culture as far as possible consistent, underload overload balanced and participatory for patients, staff, and visitor patients and staff could be supported by health care organizations to experience their roles and tasks as comprehensible, manageable, and meaningful Dual strategy: resources / possibilities to cope successfully <-> Salutogenic environment Bauer-2016 19
Primary aims: effiency & patient outcomes (safety, health, quality experience) Traditional results re employees: intensification, strain Task-related vs. relationship-related lean implementation Integrated, salutogenic approach: beneficial for patients & employees Complementary approach: Example Lean Hospitals Bauer/2016

Consider whole human being: negative & positive health development Consider whole systems: relationships between different health determinants within one system / life domain Consider whole life: social determinants across life domains & levels (cell - society) Particularly relevant for health equity Application of salutogenesis in settings: Salutogenic orientation (Bauer 2016) Bauer-2016 26

Future of salutogenesis: discussion questions (Espnes et al. 2016) 1. Is the future work on salutogenesis in need of an explicit definition of health? 2. Is salutogenesis important to positive health developmentbeyond coping with stressful, miserable life situations? 3. Antonovsky proposed Salutogenesis as a theory for HP. Why has this not happened? How can it happen? 4. Is there salutogenesis without sense of coherence? Is there SoC without salutogenesis? IUHPE-2016 28

Future research areas for salutogenesis in settings Positive health and path of positive health development Dynamics of ongoing development, depletion an restoration of GRR & of SoC in settings Within / across life domains Short-term/daily; long-term; life transitions Within individuals and groups (e.g. collective restoration, shared job resources) Interventions: communication & involvement as prerequisite for coherent interventions -> measure intervention-related SoC Inclusion of equity perspective: diverse sub-groups present in shared social system of setting Understanding differences in pathogenic & salutogenic processes Opportunity for inclusion & balancing inequity Bauer-2016 30
